  • winevdm

    16-bit Windows (Windows 1.x, 2.x, 3.0, 3.1, etc.) on 64-bit Windows

    • Even if you can run it on modern versions of Windows, you will either have to use winevdm (and some workarounds) or a 32-bit edition of Windows with NTVDM enabled. Support for DOS and 16-bit applications are completely absent in any 64-bit edition of Windows, not even Windows XP, since NTVDM depends on virtual 8086 mode, which isn't supported in long mode.

  • em-dosbox

    An Emscripten port of DOSBox

    • As an old git, I too have to resort to emulating to run some old games/programs. Best place to start is dosbox (https://www.dosbox.com/). Take a look and try yourself, if no the dosbox community will be more than willing to help https://www.reddit.com/r/dosbox/

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
